New structural divisions

Mariupol Business School, a study centre - teaching Soft Skills for all categories of applicants, Order 188-05 of 13.12.2011

Scientific and education centre of technical creativity – teaching Modern-TRIZ for all categories of applicants, Order 156-05 of 03.10.2011

2

Career Centre, ELM Office – support in seeking for employment and internship placements to PSTU graduates, Order 115-05 of 05.07.2011

Coverage in mass media, propagation of project goals and objectives

PSTU Student Scientific Society

Donetsk Chamber of Commerce

Mariupol Business School, ELM Office – new solutions for

university graduates’ recruitment

Providing long-term existence of the project results:

All project meetings and activities were broadly covered in mass media, the promotion materials were made in adequate numbers (flyers, calendars, stands, banners, badges, souvenir magnets, cups, pens, etc.) The project activities collected wide audiences of the university faculty and employees, representatives of the Chamber of Commerce, local industries and Mariupol City community. The information on the project aims and objectives was posted in the easy to access locations

To provide long-term sustainability of the project outcomes the developed master programme materials are to be approved in the specialized commissions at the Ministry of Education and Science, Youth and Sports of Ukraine. This will allow not only to use the results of the project work during the time ahead, but also to recommend the developed course materials for application at other universities in Ukraine

Providing long-term existence of the project results:

Besides, we are planning to use the materials worked out for some of the disciplines (e.g. Modern-TRIZ, Soft Skills) as stand-alone educational projects and offer the courses as trainings on commercial basis within the framework of the Business School. This will give us the opportunity to provide stability and reliable implementation as well as partial commercialization of the project results

Using the project outcomes in this way can also be considered as a good chance to establish an effective feedback channel between the university and the potential customers of educational services, i.e. local industries

Providing sustainability and commercialization of the project results will also lead to setting up new university divisions which will be able to develop some of the project activities on the return of investment basis through offering paid services to all those interested both inside and outside the university
